Greg Grandin: Would be ‘great’ if someone tried to ban book buff.ly/4CCVpPR

What a real “abundance” victory looks like: Labor’s “defied predictions of a hung parliament, hands Albanese a clear mandate to deliver a second-term agenda that includes slashing student debt, more free GP visits and building homes for first home buyers.” theguardian.com/australia-news…

Grandin: "You know, I’ve come to the conclusion that you can say and write whatever you want about Latin America. It’s not Israel. I mean, how did I become the C. Vann Woodward professor of history at Yale?"

“We need a left that’s willing to ignore genocide” is a terrifying indicator of the Democratic Party’s plans for future governance. Palestine is just the test run

Congratulations to Rachel Nolan whose fantastic book, “Until I Find You,” on coerced adoptions during the Cold War Guatemala, was finalist for the Pulitzer in non-fiction. So well deserved.

From the FT: “The array of sources is vast, and despite the book’s length, the narrative pace is superb.  America, América is an agonising appeal …. Grandin makes a mighty argument in favour. Don’t be surprised if he wins another Pulitzer.” archive.is/03t3S

Slap an accent on that é and everyone’s happy.

El Eternauta on Netflix is phenomenal. But why make Malvinas source of Juan’s trauma. Shouldn’t trauma have been the military terror of the 70s? Which would have done honor to the author who himself was disappeared along with his four daughters.
